Wireless Settings
Figure 4
Wireless Configuration Page
The
Wireless Configuration Page
contains the following fields:
■
SSID Name
— Displays the
Service Set Identifier
SSID for the ESS.
SSIDs act as a password when a mobile device attempts to connect to
the BSS. SSIDs differentiate between WLANs, therefore all access
points and devices which comprise the specific WLAN must have the
same SSID. Devices not providing a unique SSID are denied network
access. Each SSID must be unique, and can contain up-to 32
characters.
■
Security Type
—
Indicates the method used to secure WLAN access.
The possible field values are:
■
Open
— Enables open system authentication without encryption.
■
WEP
— Indicates that
Wired Equivalent Privacy
(WEP) is the
selected WLAN security method. WEP provides the same security
level as a wired LAN. WEP encrypts data over radio waves during
the packet transmission. WEP keys are 40 bit or 104 bit encryption
keys.
■
WPA-PSK
— Indicates that
Wi-If Protected Access
(WPA) is the
selected WLAN security method. WPA is based on WEP, but
provides enhanced encryption using
